Hello All,
I'm interning this summer, and I finally made the jump from Mac to PC and it has changed my life. The Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon definitely has my stamp of approval. I am curious about what other interns are using this summer and what industry vets have to say about tech in the industry!

I used X1 Carbon in my SA last year. Rly liked it
Asus Vivobook, it gets the job done.
Macbook is dead asf. Lenovo is the shit. Macbooks are only good if you get a good price on it. But the utilities are not there anymore like the last 2015 models. OS got too complicated and buggy too. Office doesn’t work that natively as on Windows. 10/10 recc for a Lenovo. (You aren’t going to become the next Tarantino anyway with a Mac and iMovie lol “CrEAtIvE pRoFeSsIoNaL”) okay but the Apple Retina screen is good though. But can be topped off with any 4k screen.

Hahhaahh I agree with M1 chips being a very good deal. But most of the apps aren't compatible yet. I am still on my 2015 Mac. Will switch once Intel stops getting their monopoly over chip pricing with Apple. And Apple better give me the ports back. AS WELL AS THE KEYBOARD ON THE NEW MACS. THIS THING FEELS HORRIBLE TO BE TYPING ON.
HP Spectre x360
Very underrated choice!
I am using a HP Spectre 15inch with a 4K screen, 16 GB ram, 4gb video ram and a i7 processor. Pretty decked out and I think this is important.
When you intern virtually you use a virtual desktop and most of my peers have complained about their VDI lagging a lot because I think they don’t have enough power to run it. Would highly recommend the HP spectre and specifically a decked out version.
Huawei Matebook X Pro. I have been using for 3 years and I am totally satisfied.
May Steve Jobs smite you from the grave
